Pulmonary edema that isn't caused by increased pressures in your heart is called noncardiogenic pulmonary edema. In this condition, fluid may leak from the capillaries in your lungs' air sacs because the capillaries themselves become more permeable or leaky, even without the buildup of back pressure from your heart.
So in other words, ambulatory medical care is a term for almost all of the medical appointments and treatments people receive regularly.
Ambulatory simply means the patient is not confined to the hospital. Ambulatory care or ambulatory treatment refers to care being provided outside the hospital. It is another term for outpatient. In ambulatory care settings, the patients come for treatment and are not admitted as inpatients to a hospital.
